The Web Summit is the best event on the Irish tech calendar, but you might want to make sure you’ve a big breakfast before heading for the RDS.
This hot dog, while it looks like quite a tasty hot dog with all the trimmings, will set you back €20. And as for the burger, which looks like something Colm Meaney may have served up during Italia ’90…
That’s twenty euro. Twenty. Spicy.
Stunning #websummit PR misstep. Charging €20 for lunch per day guaranteed to play badly. https://t.co/K5IHqGYLje

Did people think that Web Summit only screwed over sponsors and the Government? No sympathy for those getting robbed at lunch.

I went to have a look at how much food you get for €20. I think I'd feel a bit overcharged at €10, to be honest. #websummit

The €20 burger and bottle of water will be on centre stage on 3pm. To answer all allegations #WebSummit pic.twitter.com/oViZLauQEd

@philcicle I thought it was a joke until @WebSummitHQ tried to sell me a €20 lunch voucher covering 'burger and soft drink' #websummit
